Changes

Wow! This year has been flying by. I haven't had a ton of time to dedicate to this blog and we have some more changes happening in our family coming up. So sadly, I am going to shut this blog down. I hope some of the things on this blog have been helpful. Maybe at some point in the future when my life is a little more conducive to doing a blog I can try to start it back up and really dedicate some time and make it good. Good-luck with future endeavors to save money, improve health, and have fun with your children!

Raw Milk

I found a location for raw milk in Queen Creek. Read up on the benefits of raw milk. Its sad that the milk in most grocery stores have little or no nutritional value. Honestly I have mixed feeling about raw milk. I love milk, the milk at the grocery store. I don't know how I will like raw milk. I don't know if this will stick for our household but I do think its so much healthier than grocery store milk. If anything we can eliminate milk. My little guy seems to have less stomach problems when he doesn't drink very much milk anyways. Here is the link. If you interested in finding raw milk choices in your state click here. Milk is great for our health when its the right kind of milk. Thank you Sally Fallon!

Learning to Spell

Here is a great way to have your kids learn how to spell their name. I just got on Microsoft word and typed in each letter for their name. I selected a letter type I liked and printed out two copies of every letter. Use one set to glue to the file folder and cut and laminate the other. My younger son isn't old enough for this but I did his as well now so that when he can, he will be able to use this one too.

* I wish I would have left a bigger gap between the first and last name an then used velcro underneath each letter to match them up. That way they can see the top letter and the letter they use to match at the same time.
